The recently installed art banners which are proudly displayed are a result of a grant received from Gold Coast City Council & Cr Chris Robbins Division 14. The works are a result of our opening exhibition of the gallery exhibition back in July 2011. The title of the exhibition was “White Cockatoo” which is the aboriginal word for Kirra. All the artists are local – Wayne Fraser, Richard Harvey, Jason Miles, Dax Coxon and Dereka Ogden, Pamela Oberman, Jenny Brymer-Midson and Jason Hazel. They sit proudly either side of a magnificent sculpture donated by Gold Coast City Council and Gold Coast City Council. Big thanks also to our wonderful President Pam Oberman for making these banners a reality.
Artist Assist’s first Eclectic Exhibition is now on at The Kirra Hill art gallery. A month long interactive art event showcasing local artworkers of various genres, skill levels, and experience. The Friends of Kirra Hill proudly support this event and it’s aim to encourage visitors to get creative themselves as well as watch artists during their creative process onsite.

Yesterday there was a small celebration of the working committee for Xmas.
It was a fun couple of hours, with the planting of a commemorative tree. We were also later blessed with a beautiful double rainbow right across the sky. More pictures can be viewed here.
